Hearing what Lao Cao said, Lao Qi thought for a moment and said, "Okay! I can fight it myself."

Replacing a piece of broken furniture with a new piece of furniture is worth it even if you have to repair it yourself.

"Fang Yuan, let's go in and see if there's anything you like?"

"Yeah!" Fang Yuan nodded, and then the three of them entered the room together.

"Hiss!" As soon as he came into the room, Fangyuan took a breath of cold air. No wonder Lao Cao wanted to bring him here.

The house of Mr. Qi’s house is not big, but the whole house is full of old furniture. Let’s talk about the living room first! There is a piece of furniture that looks very old at first glance.

The pattern on it is very beautiful, yes, it is beautiful, and there are many hollow carvings on this table.

In addition to the table, there are two Taishi chairs. In the middle of the Taishi chairs is a square table.

The reason why it is called the square table, not the Eight Immortals table, is because this table is relatively high. When sitting on the Taishi chair, the armrests are basically the same as the table.

Generally, the Eight Immortals table is not very high, so it is not a table for eating, but a table for sitting on the Taishi chair and drinking tea.

There is also an Eight Immortals table and several stools in the main room, but Fangyuan didn't look at it because it looked like new furniture.

Fangyuan didn't watch much of the party in the living room, and then Mr. Qi took him and Lao Cao to the east room.

There is also a lot of furniture in the east room, including a large bed. At first glance, Fangyuan felt that it was an old object.

In addition to the bed, there is a standing cabinet and a four-corner cabinet. There is also a dressing table with a bronze mirror next to the window.

"How's it going? These are old furniture. My great-grandmother's generation used this dressing table." Mr. Qi pointed at the dressing table and said.

"Yes, he is indeed old enough." Fang Yuan nodded and said.

"Uh!" Mr. Qi smiled awkwardly. He thought Fangyuan meant that the furniture was too old!

Fangyuan definitely doesn't mean this, because for him, the older these furniture are, the better.

Fangyuan touched the dressing table and didn't know what material it was made of. He couldn't help it, he didn't study this.

But it doesn’t matter! No matter what the material is, the fact that it can be stored for so many years shows the problem.

You must know that it is difficult for ordinary wood to be stored for such a long time, so if it can be stored for such a long time, basically the material is not wrong.

"Master Qi, your furniture is too old! Is there any that looks similar?" Lao Cao asked at this time.

"Almost? Yes! In the wing."

"Wait a moment, I'll take a look at the West Room first." Fangyuan said as he stopped the two people.

"Fang Yuan, these furniture are too old, you..."

Before Lao Cao finished speaking, Fangyuan interrupted him and said: "Old Cao, have you forgotten my purpose? I just want old furniture, the older the better."

Hearing what Fangyuan said, Lao Cao patted his forehead and said, "That's right! How could I forget this."

Then the two people came to the west room. The west room was similar to the east room, except that it lacked a dressing table and had a bed, a standing cabinet and a four-corner cabinet.

Moreover, they are all old objects, and they are also covered with a layer of black paint, so that Fangyuan cannot see what materials are used.

Of course, Fangyuan doesn’t know if the black thing on the outside is paint, or it could be something else.

For the time being, we can only call it lacquer. Although Fangyuan doesn’t understand, he also knows what this thing is used for. In fact, it is to prevent insects and ants from eating it.

After looking at the West Room, Mr. Qi took Fangyuan and Lao Cao to the East Wing.

Mr. Qi's family lives in an alley. The gate is on the west side. There is a room next to the gate that is the kitchen.

The east wing seems uninhabitable at first glance. It seems to be specially used to store things, because there are no traces of trampling on the door.

Mr. Qi quickly opened the door. The two rooms were connected, with a beam in the middle.

The entire east wing is filled with furniture, and of course, there are also some other sundries. After seeing this, Mr. Qi thought this was a room for keeping sundry items.

Fangyuan took a look at the furniture in this house. It was indeed newer than the ones in the main room, but this was not new furniture, it was also an old item.

The reason why these furniture looks new is because there is no black paint on these furniture, only a layer of something that looks like oil.

The whole furniture looks yellow, as if it has been touched frequently and is shiny.

Fangyuan's eyes lit up, because he could tell at a glance what kind of wood these were. The wood of this color was either golden nanmu or huanghuali.

It's a pity that Fangyuan has not researched these, otherwise it would be obvious at a glance.

"How's it going? These are much newer than the ones just now, and they are also old furniture from the past." Master Qi looked at Fangyuan and Lao Cao and said.

"Well! These furniture are all good. Let's do this, Mr. Qi, you can give me a price." Fangyuan prefers to do things neatly.

"This..." Mr. Qi glanced at Lao Cao.

"Master Qi, what do you think I'm doing? This thing belongs to you. How much do you want to sell it for?"

Hearing what Lao Cao said, Mr. Qi smiled awkwardly, stretched out five fingers and said, "How about this number?"

"Fifty yuan! That's not expensive." Lao Cao nodded and said.

"Old Cao, it's not fifty, it's five hundred." Mr. Qi said to Lao Cao.

"Five...five hundred, I said Master Qi, are you trying to steal money? You want five hundred for these broken furniture. You are too cruel." Lao Cao was unhappy.

You must know that he brought Fangyuan here. Master Qi opened his mouth to ask for five hundred. This is not giving him face!

"Master Cao, my furniture is a bit old, but it is very strong, and such beautiful furniture is hard to find nowadays."

Fangyuan knew that Mr. Qi really wanted to raise prices, and he probably saw that Fangyuan liked his stuff better.

"It's so hard to find. Who doesn't have a few pieces of furniture like this nowadays?" Lao Cao looked at Mr. Qi and said.

After finishing speaking, Lao Cao said to Yuan Yuan: "Fang Yuan, let's do this. Don't you like these furniture? I also have some at home. I will give them to you later. Forget it."

"Lao Cao, don't be angry. The price can be negotiated!" Fangyuan said to Lao Cao.

Hearing what Fangyuan said, Lao Cao thought about it for a while, then looked at Lao Qi and said, "Master Qi, please give me a real price."

"Okay! For your sake, Mr. Cao, four hundred cannot be any less. You also know that even if I rebuild these furniture, it will cost a lot of money, and I will have to get it back."

"Deal, but I also have a condition." Before Lao Cao could speak, Fangyuan spoke first.

Fangyuan doesn't need to think that this incident has made the relationship between Lao Cao and Mr. Qi more tense.

Besides, four hundred yuan to buy so much old furniture is so worth it to him.

This is because no one knows the value of these old furniture, otherwise one piece would cost more than that, and they wouldn’t even sell it to you no matter how much you pay.

"Fang Yuan, what are you..." Lao Cao looked at Fan Yuan and said.

"Okay, Lao Cao, who makes me like it? That's it!"

In fact, Fangyuan also did it on purpose. He wanted to spread the news through Mr. Qi's mouth.

He bought old furniture at a high price. It is estimated that many people will be willing to sell the furniture to him.

"Okay! You're not short of money anyway." What else could Lao Cao say.

"That Fangyuan, what are your conditions..." Mr. Qi asked at this time.

"It's like this. I can't transport the furniture in the morning. I'll drive over in the afternoon to transport it. I hope you can find a few people to help me load the furniture into the car."

"That's it! No problem, I'll take care of it," Mr. Qi said, patting his chest.

"Okay, that's it, I'll give you the money first."

"No, no, no, with Master Cao standing here, it's better to hand over the money and deliver the goods."

This Mr. Qi is very good at life. Although what he did just now was a bit unethical, he has now given Lao Cao enough face.

"Okay, then it's settled."

The two of them did not stay for dinner. This does not mean that Mr. Qi did not stay with them, but that Fangyuan did not have time. He had to go outside the city to change cars, otherwise how would he take the furniture away!

Just coming out of the alley, Lao Cao smiled and said to Yuan Yuan: "How is it? I sang pretty well with the red face just now!"

"Not bad, not bad." Fangyuan gave Lao Cao a thumbs up and said.

It turns out that the two of them were acting just now, and even said that the protagonist was Lao Cao, and Fangyuan was just cooperating with him.

In fact, before arriving at Mr. Qi's house, the two of them had discussed it. As long as Fangyuan made a bid, it meant that Fangyuan wanted the furniture, and then Lao Cao would cooperate with him.

"It's just a pity that I didn't get a job." Lao Cao shook his head and said.

"Hahaha! It's not easy to eat! I'll treat you to Dong Laishun later."

"This is what you said, you can't deny it."

Fangyuan gave Lao Cao a roll of his eyes and said, "Am I the one who cares?"

The two of them did not go back, and Lao Cao took Fangyuan to another house.

This family's house is relatively large, and the location of the house is not in an alley, but on the roadside.

Lao Cao went up and patted the door. The door opened quickly, and a middle-aged man in his forties came out. He looked a few years older than Lao Cao.

"It turns out to be Mr. Cao! I wonder what's going on with Mr. Cao's visit?" the middle-aged man asked, clasping his fists at Old Cao.

"Master Ma, please don't treat me badly. I'm not looking for you today, but this person is looking for you." Lao Cao pointed at Fang Yuan and said.

"Hello, Mr. Ma." Fang Yuan also pretended to hold his fists.

"Hey! It's you."

"That's right! It's me."

Yes! Mr. Ma Fangyuan knows him, and is even very familiar with him. Of course, the two met at Lao Cao's house.

This Mr. Ma is a rich man! Not only did he buy a lot of meat, he also sold it to large yellow croakers in a large area.

"Come in quickly."

"Thank you!"

The two people followed Mr. Ma to the courtyard. Mr. Ma's courtyard looked quite big from the outside. After entering, they discovered that it was even bigger inside than it looked from the outside.

Although it can't be compared with the old man's courtyard house, it is much larger than that of Lao Cao's house. In terms of area, it is at least twice as big as Lao Cao's house.
